Jeeze trump needs to grab china by the p _ _ _ y cause if he is boxing it militarily for years and all, I mean any grandma can break a plate like. Anyway the real issue is the wontons of mass degustation schcause the us doesn’t get that much oil from the me either cause, you know, “what’s yours is ours and what’s mine is mine”, but at the end of the day I’ll usually let the schus have a go on the wii if they schkeep out of the schmuck and all etc etc and they all speak hindi over there so its cool.

This I disagree with. Geopolitically, Trump is boxing China in for decades, militarily and economically. Want to slow China’s growth, back away from Saudi Arabia and let Iran loose. The US doesn’t get a whole of oil from the ME. China sure does. WWI started when some fairly meaningless schmuck was assassinated. WW China could easily start with some Saudi “journalist” being hacked up and dissolved in Turkey. China can’t expand in any way without oil. Oh, and manufacturing is moving from China into Mexico…better and cheaper…and we already speak their language. Imagine that.

Eh problem is Mexico, Latin America, Africa, most of Asia except may be India, are slowly but surely falling hopelessly into China’s embrace. They owe it big and will do its bidding. And since the US is in its isolationist phase, they do not care.

Being buddy buddy with Saudi Arabia can turn into another Iran or worse, with what is happening with Yemen and Saudi exported terrorism. IS has lost both allies and credibility worldwide, and any exposed flank is ripe for attack.

I have to disagree, the US isn’t in isolation mode and they do care. The US is just tired of helping everyone and then getting shit for it. Help fund most of nato, gets shit on by France. Macron should walk the beaches of Normandy to remind himself why he’s not currently speaking German right now, but maybe that doesn’t matter with how much he’s doozying up with the chancellor.

Iraqis before US troop: help us take down sadam!

Iraqis today: I want sadam back.

Just the hypocrisy of blaming the US for not intervening placing the responsibilities on the US, and if the US does intervene they get shit on.

I know many Iraqis and to a person, they hated Saddam and are glad he’s dead. The chaos that followed was nothing unexpected. They knew an inescapable storm had been brewing for a generation. Very pragmatic folk.

There were many sino-Japanese conflicts. But the CCP seems to do some historical revisionism with how much the PLA fought the Japanese which is almost none. It was mostly the KMT while the PLA was hiding in the mountains and gathering troops while attacking the KMT.

I heard an interview on NPR with the former Iraqi Ambassador to the US during HWBush’s title reign recently. The first gulf war in 1991, the egging on the majority to revolt, the crackdown that followed, and finally HW’s sanctions led to the destruction of the Iraqi middle class. Which led to the second war and yadayada.

And that’s how to destabilize a country. I imagine that’s what’s got Iran sh8tting themselves these days.

Anyway, back to China. I just happened on a series of China articles by TOM ROGAN…a conservative Political columnist. Senior Fellow at the Steamboat Institute.

China's population is set to peak at 1.44 billion people in a decade's time but it then faces a long period of unstoppable decline from 2030, government scholars are warning.

And now we see what has Xi’s underwear all stained lately.

“China’s population is set to peak at 1.44 billion people in 2029 — but it then faces a long period of “unstoppable” decline, government scholars have warned.”

“The world’s most populous country must now draw up policies to try to cope with a declining labour force and a rapidly ageing population, according to a summary of the latest edition of the Green Book of Population and Labour published by the China Academy of Social Sciences (CASS).”

“Japan’s demographic crisis began after they’d got rich, which is the better way to arrange things. In China, alas, the statistics are catching up.”

“China’s median age was 22 in 1980. By 2018, it was 40. That will rise to 46 in 2030 and 56 in 2050. In the US, the median age was 30 in 1980 and 38 in 2018. In 2030, it will be 40, and 44 in 2050.”

“Since China introduced its ‘one child’ policy in 1978, the imbalance between the sexes has increased to the point where in today’s generation there are 119 boys for every 100 girls. Unless China’s planning on becoming the first gay superpower since Sparta, what’s going to happen to those young men?”

there are lots more good ones. lol
